CAAnswering
Radiology
Camille

Scans, appointments and reports. What a callback after a mammogram means, and what the words in a report say.

MAAnswering
Reconstruction
Maude

Implant, her own tissue, or no reconstruction at all, weighed at her own pace and without steering.

JOAnswering
Oral treatments
Joelle

Day to day on the CDK4/6 pills. Side effects, a missed dose at 2am, blood counts, and when to call the clinic.

SUComing soon
Survivorship
In development

Life after active treatment. Follow-up, lasting effects, and the support that continues when the appointments thin out.

REComing soon
Research
In development

Which trials are open at the CHUM, and what makes a patient eligible, in language she can act on.

SGComing soon
Surgery
In development

What the operation involves, how to prepare, and what the first weeks of recovery ask of her.

STComing soon
Systemic therapy
In development

Chemotherapy and infusions. What a treatment day involves, and which side effects mean a phone call.

RTComing soon
Radiotherapy
In development

Planning, what a session is actually like, and caring for her skin across the course.

RSComing soon
CHUM resources

Kinesiology, psychology, nutrition. Reaching the right service directly, instead of the main line.

Three companions answer today. Six more complete the pathway.
Approved guidance only

It can only say what the hospital approved.

Every answer comes from a set of documents the CHUM controls: their own patient fiches, their protocols, and the national guidelines their clinicians already follow. When a question falls outside that set, it says so and points to the care team.

42 approved documents across the three companions today.
No open web. No general medical knowledge. No guessing.
Every answer traceable to the document behind it.

Safety first, literally

The safety check runs before the AI does.

Emergencies are caught in code, not left to a model's judgment. A dangerous fever reading is intercepted and routed to emergency care in milliseconds, without the message ever reaching the AI. It is the difference between a companion a hospital can put its name on and one it cannot.

Deterministic screening on every message, before the model.
78 automated safety cases, run on every change.
Never diagnoses. Never changes a plan. Never speaks to prognosis.
Safety layer 4ms

French and English

Both languages, written twice.

Not a translation layer bolted on at the end. Every document is authored and reviewed in both languages, and a dose or a threshold is never reformatted between them. She writes in whichever language she thinks in, and it answers there.

Switches language mid-conversation, without being asked.
Clinical numbers carried across unchanged.
Reviewed by francophone clinicians, not translators.

Ça arrive à presque tout le monde, et une dose oubliée ne compromet pas votre traitement.
